Hall, Edna Ione
Edna Ione Hall OGDEN - Edna Ione Hall died peacefully at her home in Ogden,
Utah on Sunday, May 1, 2005. Ione, as she was known to her friends, was born
May 25, 1921 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, daughter of Lawrence E. and Edna M.
Elliott. She spent her childhood years in Santa Fe and Roswell, New Mexico,
graduating from Roswell High School in 1940. She attended the University of
Oklahoma until her studies were interrupted by World War II and marriage to
the love of her life, Ora R. (Dick) Hall, Jr. They were married January 1,
1942 and celebrated 54 years together as partners, parents and friends until
his death in 1996. Following the war, she and her husband founded and managed
the Federal Abstract Company of Santa Fe, New Mexico. They continued as
partners in a variety of business ventures in Roswell, New Mexico from 1958 to
1970, when they "retired" to Ogden, Utah. In Ogden, they pursued additional
business endeavors through the establishment of Elliott-Hall Company with
their childre n as partners. Over the years, Ione and Dick maintained homes
near Vallecitos, New Mexico; Litchfield Park, Arizona; Jackson, Wyoming; and
Island Park, Idaho where they enjoyed their passions for golf, bridge,
fishing, cooking, gardening, horse racing, savoring the wonders of nature and
sharing good times with family and friends. A gifted cook, Ione could put a
delicious meal on the table on short notice for all who happened to gather.
Ione raised her children in the Episcopal faith and volunteered much support
to St. Andrew's Church in Roswell, New Mexico, Church of the Good Shepherd in
Ogden, Utah and St. Peter's Church in Litchfield Park, Arizona. She instilled
in her children values of tolerance, patience, acceptance and generosity of
spirit, and she encouraged them to choose to march to the sound of their own
drummer. Aside from her own children, throughout her life she thoughtfully
mentored teenagers and adults too numerous to count, earning their trust and
easing their burdens wit h wry humor, a quieting voice and timeless wisdom.
She shared with her children and grandchildren a deep love of animals of all
kinds, but especially horses, dogs and cats. Ione lived a life of community
and civic service. From Cub Scouts to Girl Scouts, library boards to public
arts organizations, she was always willing to volunteer her time and talents.
As secretary of the Pecos Valley Horseman's Association she was the heart and
soul of horse shows and rodeos for many years. She often served as a volunteer
election judge and was proud to have voted in every election since 1942. She
is survived by three children: Mary Ann Miller (Ken) of West Haven, Utah;
Patricia Ione Weckel (Billy) of Deming, New Mexico; and George Elliott Hall
(Mary) of Ogden, Utah. Also surviving are 14 grandchildren and 8 great
grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, a daughter, Elizabeth
June Fry of Pleasant View, Utah, and a son, Lawrence Jackson Hall of Austin,
Texas. The family wishes to express their heart-felt appreciation for the
incredibly tender care provided by Bea Shupe, Sesiu and Tony Moeaki and to the
